Mrs. (Inosevelt, whoso home is at Hyde 1 'a rlr -on-t he-11 ud-son, was for a number of years vice chairman of the St a to League of Women Voters and up to the time that women beeame members of the Hcmocratle slate committer-, was vice, chairman of the women's division.

Mrs Koosev'eft has toured the state for he last few ears in he Interest of the Pemooratlc party and Postal Clerks Directed to Keep Firearms in Workable Condition John Rledlnger. 45-year-old veteran of tha army and navy, had a good Christmas dinner, but In order for him to do so, It was necessary for Superintendent of Poor Alfred A.

Lord to overlook legal technicalities, which prohibits veterans from being sent to a county home. In other words Rledlnger is not technically an inmate of the county home, but is simply given a place to sleep and food until he can find a Job. Rledlnger couldn't be given aid through tho Soldiers' Memorial Belief fund, because he wasn't In the World War and Is of German parentage. His ear drums do not function properly, because of the firing of heavy guns which kept him from enlistins; for another period In the army or navy, so he says he served as cook at a coal mine during the war. Friday morning he applied at the Broome county Jail and asked for food and a place to sleep, saying that he couldn't, find work and was without funds.

Undersheriff Maurice A. Pope, who was In charge, hesl-lated to lock Riedlnger up, because he could not technically be called a vagrant aa he had not begged on thp street. Undersheriff Pope called Lord, who also was In a quandry, because the law prohibits a veteran from being an Inmate of the county home. Rledlnger said he didn't want to go to a soldier's home, because he was willing ana able to earn his own way If he could find work, but would do so If necessity compelled him to. After reviewing the case the superintendent of poor furnished Rled-inger money for his dinner and told him to go to the county home for his meals until he can And work or arrangements made to send him to a soldiers' home.

Rledlnger, according to his story, has been In the United States for 26 years, coming here from Germany. He served from 1904 until 1907 in the Sixty-fourth Company, Coast Artillery Corps, at Fort Flagler, Washington, and reenlisted In the navy from 1907 until 1911. where he served on the collier Neptune. He returned to Germany In 1912 to visit his mother, where efforts were made to enlist him in tha German army. Rledinger claimed United Slates citizenship, and finally left Germany on May 26, 1914, Just a short time before war was declared with Russia.

Jle worked his way to New Orleans on a tramp steamer and worked for some time as a aallor on various boats. He said he tried to enlist In 1917. but was disqualified owing to his defective hearing. Since that time Itiedinger says he has visited many cities In this country and has worked at all lines of work, but temporarily is at the end of his rope because he has been working on farms and there are v.o Jobs open at present.
